What are you talking about? Don't write it yet. That would mean the band is over or dead. I hope it will be for a very, very long time.
Not necess celery. Plenty of 'slebs write their warts an' all mid-career or even earlier if they're worried they'll be a flash in the pan...
Neil has far more behind him than in front of him. It's time the tale was told. Although in fairness, he's always given insightful copy to journos and presumably reflected a fair bit of his life in lyrics. Maybe he wouldn't be comfortable disclosing more.

They may let us know more about the workshop run through of "Naked". We've also had the double bill BFI screening of It Couldn't Happen Here and Battleship Potemkin and then a revival of Musik at Wilton's.
It would be nice if they included an EP of MUSIK either “Billie Trix” or their demos. If they had it as Billie they could get Francis to record “The Night Is The Time To Explore Who You Are”.
Hopefully it won’t be long before they ask for questions. Mind you the last few editions have been severely lacking with the amount of questions answered and the level of depth or interest of question asked.
It’s released on February 30th as a very limited edition via a hidden link in a lost email that no one will know about until after all 150 copies have sold out and 3 appear on eBay for £800 each . Too soon?

It’s already out. One non fan received a cryptic email at 4am last week. He was under strict instructions to purchase it then put it on eBay for £700.

We are starting work on the 2026 edition of “Annually”, which, as every year, will include a selection of your letters answered by Chris and Neil. So if you have a question for them, email it to info@beckerbrown.com with “Annually letters” in the subject line by next Wednesday, 26th November (Alternatively, you can leave a question in the comments below). Details on how to pre-order your copy of "Annually" 2026 will be revealed here soon.
Not sure if I will do a question. They always seem to go for the daft questions or give daft responses, rather than saying anything you could hope to get some substance from. I guess that's a Smash Hits throwback.
. Too soon?
